New online! Tailoring interaction network types to answer different ecological questions

Tailoring interaction network types to answer different ecological questions

Nature Reviews Biodiversity, Published online: 13 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s44358-025-00056-7This Perspective provides guidance about how to select the most appropriate type of interaction network for different research questions in ecology. Networks can vary according to the extent of node aggregation and the information that links represent; each kind of network formulation has advantages in different contexts.

The MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme is now open with a call deadline on 10 September 2025. Come to Sheffield. It's nice and (sometimes) sunny.

Dylan Childs@dzchilds.bsky.social · last yr.

The next call for the MSCA postdoctoral fellowships scheme opens soon. Come work with me if you're interested in anything related to biodemography and population ecology. And if you're not, consider coming to work with one of my many fine colleagues instead.
